Did I miss something? I hadn't noticed that those values were later read in from the backend.
It appears that the backend passes a "one|two|three" type string, which is then parsed by the frontend (since only xforms takes that kind of string for a combo natively), put into the combobox, and the same user-visible strings are passed back. 1. Shouldn't the backend be giving me a STL list-type structure? Parsing a string seems a little bit of a roundabout way. 2. Are these strings translated in the backend? Or do they not need to be because they're always numbers? John
